The Dog And His Reflection Aesop A Dog, to whom the butcher had thrown a bone, was hurrying home with his prize as fast as he could go. As he crossed a narrow footbridge, he happened to look down and saw himself reflected in the quiet water as if in a mirror. But the greedy Dog thought he saw a real Dog carrying a bone much bigger than his own. If he had stopped to think he would have known better. But instead of thinking, he dropped his bone and sprang at the Dog in the river, only to find himself swimming for dear life to reach the shore. At last he managed to scramble out, and as he stood sadly thinking about the good bone he had lost, he realized what a stupid Dog he had been. It is very foolish to be greedy. Page 2 of 20

GIVE ME SPACE We occasionally have dogs at the club that require some space around them. Like people, all dogs are different and some dogs don t cope very well when their space is encroached upon by handlers or other dogs. These Give Me Space vests are not exclusively for dogs with aggression issues, but also for dogs that may have fear-based behaviours. To identify these dogs, they wear a yellow vest, similar to the picture above By a dog wearing these space vests the club believes it is a safe way for the dog to still participate in their class and slowly socialise and integrate within their training class. This also makes the class as safe as possible for all handlers and their dogs and instructors too. Remember, we are working with animals, so we need you, our members, to learn to recognise when these dogs are wearing these vests and give them the space that they require. If you are around the clubrooms or in class and see a dog with a vest on, please assist the handler and their dog by keeping your dog at least 1 metre away. You may be asked to move further away by the owner or Instructor if they feel you are too close, please respect their request If you believe your dog would benefit from wearing a space vest, please discuss it with the Chief Instructor. Please do not get offended if your dog is asked to wear a space vest in class. We have vests for small dogs and up to large dogs Page 7 of 20

CLUB TROPHIES At the end of each year the club awards trophies to members who for example, have gained ANKC titles in disciplines which are practiced at the club, other special categories such as highest scoring dog in competition, most improved dog in club. Refer to the Trophy Policy below for a full list of trophies. As some members have queried how they qualify for trophies under the Club s Trophy Policy this has been included below. At a recent committee meeting it was agreed that we need a definition for training session so that it is clear to our members what they need to do to ensure they qualify for a trophy under the attendance rules. A Training Session is defined as: a. Attendance in a group class taken by an Instructor (Puppy class through to class 5) b. Attendance and participation in the Trial rings c. Providing assistance with running of the club at scheduled training times e.g. instructors. d. Does not include attendance at the Socialisation Walk. Effective 1 st June 2018 TROPHY POLICY 1. To be entitled to any Trophy, a person has to be a Financial Member of the Club at the end of the Trialling Year, as specified from year to year in the Club Calendar. 2. Trophies and awards from disciplines where all members of the WODC Inc. are eligible to participate in, will be recognised by the club under this trophy policy. Said disciplines must be sanctioned ANKC events. The club will recognise other sanctioned ANKC disciplines where all WODC Inc members are not eligible to participate, by way of a Certificate of Achievement. 3. All trophies, sashes, certificates of achievement must be applied for on the club s trophy application form. 4. People can donate for specific trophies but cannot purchase any trophies except where the trophy has been seen and agreed to by the Club Committee prior to purchase. a) People can donate special trophies only when agreed to by the Club Committee prior to 30 th June annually. The cut-off date for points towards Trial Trophies shall be the date specified from year to year in the Club Calendar. b) To be eligible to be awarded a Trophy or Certificate as stipulated in the Trophy Policy, a member must attend a minimum of 17 training sessions of which 10 must be a Saturday in any training year. (The trialling / Training year will commence the 1 st of November and conclude the 31 st of October the following year.) Should the member not be a member for the full year then the same applies but on a pro-rata basis for the period of the membership. Page 11 of 20

ie. 3 months attendance = 4 attendances of which 3 attendances must be on a Saturday, 6 months attendance = 8 attendances of which 6 attendances must be on a Saturday, 9 months attendance = 13 attendances of which 10 attendances must be on a Saturday. The trophy policy criteria will be adjusted by the committee if two (2) or more Saturday training sessions are cancelled due to weather, ground or other special conditions. To be awarded a title trophy at least two passes towards the title applied for must be gained whilst a member of the club. Should the required attendance not be obtained; titles will be acknowledged by the Club with the awarding of a title sash. c) Where a member is unable to meet the criteria set out in Point 4b due to extenuating circumstances e.g. illness, death of the dog etc., the member may apply to the committee for consideration for the award to be granted 5. Points towards Highest Placed Dog in Club Competition Trophy total per team, (one dog, one handler). 6. Points towards Highest Scoring Junior in Club Competition Trophy total per team, (one dog, one handler). 7. To qualify for 1 st place points for the Highest Placed Dog in Club Competition Trophy at least 2 dogs must compete in that Class and, where there are only 2 dogs competing, there shall only be points awarded to the 1 st place-getter. To qualify for 1 st and 2 nd place points, at least 3 dogs must compete in that Class and there shall be no 3 rd place points awarded. To qualify for 1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd place points, at least 4 dogs must compete in the Class. Any points so awarded cannot later be retracted on a count back of individual scores, with the exception of Clause 14(b) as stated. No equal places shall be awarded on any Funday. 8. A dog can only be entered in one Class on any given Funday, except in novelty events or where special permission is given by the Chief Instructor. If special permission is gained no dog is to be entered more than twice in the same Funday. Under no circumstances will the handler and dog run a place, receive a trophy or place ribbon for a Funday class entered below that which the dog has been passed to. 9. When special permission is granted and members of the same family enter the same dog on the same Funday, only the highest score in the highest class level shall count towards any awards at the end of the Club Year (Clause 6 shall apply). Only places gained in the highest class level on a Funday shall be recognised on the day and shall be eligible to win a trophy and place ribbon (Clause 6 shall still apply). A handler with the same dog in a lower class level can be promoted provided a qualifying score is attained, but will not be eligible to win a trophy or place ribbon or run a place. 10. The order of merit and importance for Club Trophies in respect of the design of said trophies upon purchasing, shall be: Equal 1 st Highest Scoring Dog in Trials Highest Placed Dog in Club Competition Highest Scoring Junior in Club Competition 2 nd Most Improved Dog in Club 3 rd Encouragement Trophies - being Senior Encouragement T.C.C.

E.T, All Club Trophies and Title Ribbons will only be awarded in the Club s current trialling year. Clause 4 (b) shall apply to any trophies being awarded. Trophies will be awarded to all members who gain a particular title for the first time. On successfully attaining the same title with another dog/s, the member will have the option of either selecting the prescribed trophy or a plaque. The selected trophies shape and size are all subject to availability. All trophies selected are decided by the Club Committee. 13. All trophies shall include both the Handler's or Owners Name and Dog's Pet Name. 14. All trophies shall be decided as follows: a) Highest Scoring Dog in Trials The average of the three highest qualifying scores obtained under two A.N.K.C. judges at any sanctioned trial attended during the Club's Trialling Year. In the event of equal average scores being obtained then multiple trophies shall be awarded as equal trophies. This trophy is by application only on the Highest Scoring Dog in Trial club form, with pass cards to be sighted. b) Highest Placed Dog in Club Competition Applicable to Classes Puppy to Class 5 inclusive based on the aggregate system of points gained on Fundays, i.e. 3 points for 1 st place, 2 points for 2 nd place and 1 point for 3 rd place. (Clause 8 shall apply). Where an equal score occurs the count back shall be conducted on aggregate points only. As this is a club competition where all dogs eligible do not necessarily compete in the same classes. Therefore in the event of a tie, the dog with the most number of 1 st place points shall be deemed the winner. Where the amount of 1 st place points are equal, then the dog with the most number of 2 nd place points shall be deemed the winner. Where the amount of 1 st and 2 nd place points are equal, then the dog with the most number of 3 rd place points shall be deemed the winner. In the event of points still being equal then the score from each place gained at the Fundays will be taken and divided by the number of Fundays held by the Club in the year to determine the winner. In the event of the average points then still being equal, multiple trophies shall be awarded. c) Highest Scoring Junior in Club Competition Applicable to Junior Members Only, (this being the membership category as at 1 st July each year) in classes Puppy to Class 8 inclusive. Page 13 of 20

To be calculated on percentage method divided by the number of Fundays held per Club Year, regardless of the number entered. i.e. Class 1 total points 200 gained 150 = 75% Class 2 total points 200 gained 120 = 60% Class 3 total points 200 gained 140 = 70% Class 4 total points 200 gained 110 = 55% TOTAL PERCENTAGE = 260% 260% DIVIDED BY 4 (Fundays) = average of 65% for the year. d) Most Improved Dog In Club Based on overall performance of both handler and dog during the Club Year, i.e. progression of training, problems encountered and solved etc. e) Encouragement Awards - Senior & Junior Encouragement & T.C.C. Award Based on year's performance. f) Best Junior Handler. Based on year's performance. 15.
